A FRIST CLASS ENJOYER OF LIFE

You are here to brighten up the world with your amusing presence. You are the Queen on a comfortable duvet, enjoying the finer things in life. You are optimistic and likable, and know how to lead a good life. The symbol, the front legs of a bed, suggests your inclination toward deep relaxation and rejuvenation. You never overwork, and you know how to take care of yourself and live comfortably, surrounding yourself with things you love. You also take good care of others and make them feel like they are a part of your royal court. You are a good conversationalist who can mingle with people from different cultures, and are great at creating a pleasurable atmosphere. The image you cast on people is very important to you and you often succeed in standing out as someone striking, while keeping it within the social norms. As the presiding deity, Bhaga suggests, you are inspired by relaxation and the delights that life has to offer. You don’t over think, living life moment to moment, and you try to enjoy every second. You are also very productive and busy, even though you seem to be always sailing away from mundane social turbulence. You are a social butterfly and love satisfying your aesthetics with beautiful things such as art, performances, fine food and drinks., you are always working on yourself to be more sophisticated, whether materially or spiritually. You also love traveling to deepen your understanding of the world. Purva Phalguni is ruled by Venus, and lies in Leo, ruled by the Sun. You are most charitable and accepting when you can do everything on your own terms, but when it is disturbed, you are very susceptible to explode into anger. You disdain those who cannot keep the standards that you have established and you suddenly become unstable and overdramatic when the boundary is crossed. You can be very showy and superficial, which makes it hard for you to engage in truthful relationships. You can also be too indulgent or overly focused on yourself. Expand your vision and see everything in its own light; share the beauty of life with everyone!

When the Moon is in Purva Phalguni:
Purva Phalguni’s main symbol is the front legs of a bed, representing rest and renewal. The presiding deity is Bhaga, the protector of marital happiness and the bestower of pleasure and prosperity. It is a good time to sit back, relax and enjoy: get married; spend time with your romantic partner; go to an art show or a concert; engage in fun artistic activities like painting and singing. It is a great Nakshatra to deal with things related to property and construction. Purva Phalguni is ruled by Venus and resides entirely within the sign Leo, ruled by the Sun. This is a good time for dealing with authorities using your charm and charisma: approach someone in power with a smile and get what you need; bring up issues in an appeasing manner; be creative in planning or scheming what you would like to achieve; be charming and negotiate a deal for a property etc. The Shiva Lingam is associated with this Nakshatra, indicating the power of destruction to enable new creation and rejuvenation. It is a great time to clear the air, settle disputes and take a rest from your ongoing problems.

Remedy  for  Purva phalguni

The sacred energy vortex for the star of Purva Phalguni is located in Thiruvarankulam, close to Alangudi in Tamil Nadu, India. People born under this star should visit Sri HariTheertheswarar temple at least once during their lifetime.

The Purva Phalguni (Pooram) theertha, is one of the sacred bathing ghats in the world of Lord Fire. (A ghat refers to a stairway leading to a body of water). In the realm of Purva Phalguni star, there are seven theerthas Siva Theertha, Gnana Brahma Theertha, Naga Theertha, IndraTheertha, SkandhaTheertha, Sri Theertha and Guru Theertha. All seven of these theerthas are not visible to the naked eye. Only after taking a holy bath at one theertha, do the other theerthas become visible. Therefore, the path to the Guru Theertha is only visible to those who have taken a holy dip in the other Theerthas on the Purva Phalguni star day. Due to divine grace, the sacred temple at Thiruvarankulam Sri HariTheertheswarar contains all seven of these theerthas. Siddhas proclaim this as an important site of worship for those born Purva Phalguni star, as these peopleare capable of receiving the darshan of the precious theerthas. People born in Purva Phalguni star have a powerful connection with water, and they will benefit greatly from taking a holy bath at these sacred vortexes as frequently as possible.

After performing penance, Goddess Aadippoora was granted the fortune of receiving several darshans of Lord Shiva on the Purva Phalguni star day during the month of Adi. Those born under Purva Phalguni would also benefit from a visit to this significant sacred shrine on their birthday, Purva Phalguni day, AdiPooram (Purva Phalguni day in the month of Adi), and on their wedding.
